Top Bangkok Tours

Thailand, meaning ‘Land of the Free’ is undoubtedly ‘Amazing’, as they say in Television advertising. It’s Capital City Bangkok, ‘City of Angels’ is also a most incredible City of contrasts, between wealth and poverty, east and west, the old and the new. Bangkok is forever shifting, always adapting to trends and outside influences. The City is in a constant state of renewal, with old wooden Buildings frequently demolished to make way for modern Office and Shopping complexes. But unlike many Cities, as you will see below, Thailand’s culture is well preserved.

Bangkok people enthusiastically embrace all things new and trends spread through the City like wildfire. Thai people are infused with the Thai concept of ‘sanuk’ meaning fun, which applies to everything, whether in work or play, so doing anything alone, is generally considered ‘mai sanuk’ (not fun). Perhaps this goes some way to explain this heaving metropolis, which appears to never stop and offers so much, to those of us will to take the time, to explore.

Because Bangkok is so big and there is no obvious City Centre, seeing the sights needs some organising. There are many places you can visit on your own and in your own time, but for longer trips, it does make sense to arrange through your Hotel when you are here, so that you can sense the local environment. A good place to start is to follow our suggestions below, which give a sense of history and culture, whilst introducing the qualities of modern lifestyle, in this wonderful Capital City.
